ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHINGS
May 27, 2024
Prayer for the Week: (thinking about the five young people baptized yesterday at CCCC)
Young people cocooned in the waters of baptism.
There is joy—unspeakable joy.
The beginning of a journey by which they embrace their unique goodness.
There is joy—unspeakable joy.
A church that welcomes those who have risen from the waters.
A church that seeks to celebrate the unique gifts of every child.
There is joy—unspeakable joy.
O God of water and resurrection, ritual and threshold moments, we give you thanks for John and Jesus and all who invited generations to experience baptism and the unspeakable joy that comes in claiming one’s beloved place in the family of God.
Amen.
